* ''Film/ShortCircuit'' Johnny Five, as of the epilogue of the second movie.

* Robo-47 from ''VideoGame/{{War of the Monsters}}''. He sports U.S. Air Force symbols, is loaded with appropriate chain guns and nuclear missiles, and comes with a [[DropTheHammer Hammer of Justice]]. He even leads a U.S. Army battalion against the player's monster in adventure mission 2.

* Showbonyan/Robonyan USA from ''VideoGame/YoKaiWatchThree'' is the 'Merican version of Robonyan, complete with the colors of the American flag and stars all over.

* [[https://www.fastcompany.com/90293253/the-secret-history-of-cleatus-foxs-enduringly-weird-football-robot Cleatus the NFL robot.]]

* The Big Guy, of ''ComicBook/TheBigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'', which is {{justified|Trope}}, as the whole program was an over-glorified publicity stunt. He's partnered with an {{Expy}} of Manga/AstroBoy, though. [[spoiler: and also, he's not actually a robot; he's a suit of armor piloted by a jet fighter pilot.]]

* The title Metal Wolf of ''VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos''. Its [[AndYourRewardIsClothes alt forms]] are even ''more'' patriotic.

* The ''Wiki/SCPFoundation'' has [[http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-2776 SCP-2776]], an automaton resembling and believing himself to be UsefulNotes/GeorgeWashington. [[spoiler:As it turns out, he ''[[BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy is]]'' George Washington, or at least the unstoppable and patriotic murder machine that replaced him.]]

Welcome to {{Eagleland}}, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitches]]! We're rich, industrious, [[UsefulNotes/YanksWithTanks militarily powerful]] and [[HotBlooded burningly]] [[PatrioticFervor patriotic]]! How to show that in fiction? Why with [[HumongousMecha Giant Robots]] of course. An American Robot, in short, is any [[SuperRobot super fighting machine]] that [[LargeHam hams]] up the USA to [[UpToEleven the power of eleven]]. Expect them to be [[WearingAFlagOnYourHead decked out in the stars and stripes]], packing [[MoreDakka the heavy artillery]], and burning with sheer American pride.

* The title Metal Wolf of ''VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos''. Its [[AndYourRewardIsClothes alt forms]] are even ''[[UpToEleven more]]'' patriotic.

* ''VideoGame/CodenameSTEAM'' features a {{steampunk}} strike force led by President UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln. Their strongest weapon is the Antropomorphic Battle Engine or [[FunWithAcronyms A.B.E.]], a HumongousMecha modeled on and piloted by Lincoln himself. [[spoiler:And a miniaturized version of A.B.E., called S.T.O.V.E.P.I.P.E., is unlockable as a secret character.]]

* The Big Guy, of ''Comicbook/TheBigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'', which is {{justified|Trope}}, as the whole program was an over-glorified publicity stunt. He's partnered with an {{Expy}} of Manga/AstroBoy, though. [[spoiler: and also, he's not actually a robot; he's a suit of armor piloted by a jet fighter pilot.]]

** [[DoubleMeaning Taking the best of what other nations have to offer has always been an American ideal!]]
* Creator/DCComics' G.I. Robot (aka J.A.K.E.).
* The Iron Patriot armor, built and worn by ComicBook/NormanOsborn during ''Comicbook/DarkReign'', is meant to be a mixture of ComicBook/IronMan and ComicBook/CaptainAmerica. He liberally uses Tony Stark's blueprints to fashion his suit(s).

* Sergent Thomas "Tommy" Tinker is either a robot or a nearly entirely mechanical cyborg that works alongside the living spirit of America and shows up to help ComicBook/{{Robin|Series}} when Penguin's bounty on him and ComicBook/{{Batgirl|2000}} draws well over fifty killers to town looking to collect.

* ''WesternAnimation/BigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'': the BGY-11 in this version is just really patriotic because it's his job to defend the country, rather than as a publicity stunt. [[spoiler: He's also not really a robot]].]]

Welcome to {{Eagleland}}, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitches]]! We're rich, industrious, [[UsefulNotes/YanksWithTanks militarily powerful]] and [[HotBlooded burningly]] [[PatrioticFervor patriotic]]!

* ''Manga/{{Heroman}}''. "AMERICA BANZAI!" aside, Heroman's giant red white and blue motif, complete with the hot-blooded IN AMERICA style (with a PhenotypeStereotype [[TheKidWithTheRemoteControl controller]]) is this trope to a T.

* In the early design phases for ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam Wing]]'', the original plan was to follow the NationalStereotypes motif started by ''G''. However, in an interesting twist, Gundam Heavyarms, originally designed as an this by painting it in bright colors and stacking on [[MoreDakka tons of]] [[MacrossMissileMassacre missiles and]] [[GatlingGood a huge gatling gun]] was eventually given to the ''European'' member of the core cast. The American of the bunch instead got the Gundam Deathscythe, the stealthy, bat-winged Gundam with a gigantic [[SinisterScythe beam scythe]] (which the American fanbase immediately nicknamed "[[Franchise/{{Batman}} The Bat-Gundam]]").

* ''ComicBook/AtomicRobo'' reeks of the trope, especially with his classical 20th century American values. His inventor is the immigrant Serbian UsefulNotes/NikolaTesla.

* Sergent Thomas "Tommy" Tinker is a either a robot or a nearly entirely mechanical cyborg that works alongside the living spirit of America and shows up to help ComicBook/{{Robin|Series}} when Penguin's bounty on him and ComicBook/{{Batgirl|2000}} draws well over fifty killers to town looking to collect.

* While no [[{{Eagleland}} patriotic American]] ''[[HumongousMecha mechs]]'' were built until 2015 (see below), that doesn't stop American companies and individuals from dressing up their cars and other equipment in red, white, and blue. The American Motors Corporation made several outlandishly patriotic paintjobs for their high-end cars; The [[http://i.imgur.com/KYjQROo.jpg Rebel Machine]] and [[http://i.imgur.com/QieHAfu.jpg Rambler Scrambler]] both came out of the factory with fluorescent red and blue stripes and decals on a white body, and [[EnormousEngine both had 6.4 liter V8 engines]]. The AMX and Javelin AMX raced with red-white-and-blue liveries in the SCCA.
* While America is leading the way in terms of unmanned and robotic weapon systems such as bomb disposal robots and UAV's like the predator and Global Hawk UAV's, they are a downplayed of this trope rather then a straight example since this trope is about a American "super robot".

** Megabots upgraded mech, [[https://youtu.be/T22JN6IWsJA the Mk-III]] hams up the "Super American" look even more. Among other things it features stars and stripes armor, a chrome grill with floodlights, tank tread feet, and a bald eagle head on its shoulder. [[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam Gundam Maxter]] would be proud.

* In the early design phases for ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Gundam Wing]]'', the original plan was to follow the NationalStereotypes motif started by ''G''. However, in an interesting twist, Gundam Heavyarms, originally designed as an AmericanRobot by painting it in bright colors and stacking on [[MoreDakka tons of]] [[MacrossMissileMassacre missiles and]] [[GatlingGood a huge gatling gun]] was eventually given to the ''European'' member of the core cast. The American of the bunch instead got the Gundam Deathscythe, the stealthy, bat-winged Gundam with a gigantic [[SinisterScythe beam scythe]] (which the American fanbase immediately nicknamed "[[Franchise/{{Batman}} The Bat-Gundam]]").

* The Big Guy, of ''Comicbook/TheBigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'', which is {{justified|Trope}}, as the whole program was an over-glorified publicity stunt. He's partnered with an {{Expy}} of Manga/AstroBoy, though.

* ''WesternAnimation/BigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot'': the BGY-11 in this version is just really patriotic because it's his job to defend the country, rather than as a publicity stunt. [[spoiler:[[HumongousMecha He's also not really a robot]].]]

** In ''Film/IronMan3'', War Machine gets Norman Osborn's paint job on his armor to become the Iron Patriot, the top dog of US defense. But Rhodey makes sure to note he still prefers the name War Machine.

* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWBKSO4DvWk&feature=related Code Guardian]]'', a web-original video production of a giant American Robot defeating a giant Japanese Samurai Robot and a Giant Nazi Robot in an Alternate (mech-based) Pearl Harbor.

* ''Anime/MobileFighterGGundam'' has Chibodee Crockett's mech Gundam Maxter, which is a [[SurferDude surfing]] {{cowboy}} UsefulNotes/AmericanFootball-player GiantRobot [[GoodOldFisticuffs boxer]]. Most countries have equally stereotypical Gundams, but they usually don't have quite [[NinjaPirateRobotZombie that many different stereotypes combined]]. Also, his crew is a bunch of {{Wrench Wench}}es.
